Tomorrow is my monthly Boy Scout roundtable meeting for which I have the sole responisbility of providing refreshments. I don't do the cop out of buying cookies and soda. I actually cook for this thing. The fact that it's an after dinner meeting means I just have to do desserts but still. Tomorrows menu includes Blueberry Truffles, Apple Walnut Berry Crisp, Sweet Potato Pecan Bread and Hot Apple Dumplings.

I modified a raspberry truffles recipe but essentially it's very fine dark chocolate with almond and blueberry liquer added and then poured over fresh blueberries that have a slightly hardened syrup over them already so the syrup then becomes liquid inside the chocolate. I'll post recipes tomorrow. I generally make some modifications as I go along.

man! Chef Wander... whoddathunkit? Actually, judging from your terror sauce and your own homemade tabasco sauce, I can tell you're one hell of a cook. Ever considered opening up a restaurant or catering business of some sort? I'm sure you'd be awesome!

I've given it thought. I've done just about every job you can in a restaurant including head cook. Restaurant management is a big headache though. Not sure I've got the temperment for it. Deb and I and others have talked of opening a bar that served food though.
